Toshiba Encore Mini packs Windows 8.1 into a 7-inch tablet

Taking Windows 8.1 with Bing to the small scale, Toshiba has announced the Toshiba Encore Mini at IFA 2014.

Looking to challenge Android in the 7-inch tablet stakes, the Encore Mini is powered by an Intel Atom Z3745 processor with 1GB of RAM, designed to keep you productive on the move.

The tablet will launch with Windows 8.1 with Bing - where Bing is set as the default search option in Internet Explorer, and designed to make Windows more affordable - and you'll also get a year of free Office 365.
